Hershey's Chocolate World has rolled out a brand NEW Christmas holiday overlay for their iconic (and totally free!) Hershey's Chocolate Tour ride! This marks the most significant update in a decade and is a must-see for enthusiasts of the ride. Think 2,000+ sparkling holiday lights, a fresh festive soundtrack, and even elves straight from the North Pole joining the fun.
And here’s a little pro tip: keep your eyes peeled for special characters like Grandpa Milt, Grandma Cocoa, Uncle Nib, Papa Snavely, Plume, and Pip as you go through the tour.

https://youtu.be/4kqVSowFtmU Experience the thrill of SheiKra at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay in stunning 8K 360° VR, captured with the Insta360 X5 from the front row for a truly immersive view. This Bolliger & Mabillard Dive Coaster stands 200 feet tall and sends riders plunging straight down a 90-degree drop at speeds up to 70 mph. Opened in 2005 and converted to floorless trains in 2007, SheiKra lets your legs dangle freely as you dive, twist through a massive Immelmann inversion, soar through an underground tunnel, and finish with a dramatic splashdown finale. Named after the shikra hawk, known for its fearless dives, this coaster lives up to its name with breathtaking drops and smooth, soaring maneuvers. Watch in 360° VR to look around the entire ride as it happens — every climb, drop, and scream-filled turn in ultra-high resolution. For the best experience, use a VR headset or mobile device with motion view enabled, and don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more immersive coaster adventures!

Farewell, Six Flags America 🎢

Today, we say goodbye to Six Flags America. We had the chance to visit this park over the summer, and it’s sad to see its gates close for good. It may not have been the biggest or flashiest park, but it had its own charm and plenty of memories for so many fans.

Here’s hoping someone steps in to preserve a piece of its history—or gives its rides a new home where they can keep bringing joy to others.

Will you miss Six Flags America? Let us know your favorite memory in the comments below.

🎥 Relive our visit from this past August here:

➡️ https://youtu.be/NPUgy_5IQFU Join me for my first-ever visit to Six Flags Great America during Fright Fest 2025, as I experience the park at night in stunning cinematic quality — filmed on the iPhone 17 Pro with Spatial Audio! Located in Gurnee, IL and originally developed and opened by the Marriott Corporation in 1976 as Marriott’s Great America, this iconic Illinois theme park has grown into one of the Midwest’s premier thrill destinations.

This visit includes the all-new Wrath of Rakshasa, a Bolliger & Mabillard dive coaster that opened on May 31, 2025, featuring a towering 180-foot lift hill, a 96° beyond-vertical drop, and five inversions that deliver pure adrenaline. I’ll also take on several of the park’s most iconic coasters including Raging Bull, the legendary hyper coaster, and Batman: The Ride, the world’s first inverted roller coaster and an official ACE Coaster Landmark. Plus, I finally get to experience the interactive dark ride Justice League: Battle for Metropolis, along with the haunting atmosphere of Fright Fest as the park transforms under the night sky. Captured in 4K HDR with lifelike Spatial Audio, this vlog brings you as close as possible to the Six Flags Great America experience!

https://youtu.be/42euaL5v0W0 Strap in for a full front-row ride on the legendary Montu at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay — captured in immersive 360° with the Insta360 X5! Towering at 150 ft and diving 128 ft, this inverted steel coaster built by Bolliger & Mabillard launched in May 1996 and still thrills with a top speed of 60 mph and seven inversions, including twin vertical loops, a 90-foot Immelmann, a zero-G roll and a dramatic batwing trench. With the front-row vantage you’ll dangle through the twists and turns, feel the G-forces (up to 3.8 g) and zoom through the themed “Egypt” section of the park like a hawk-headed war god named Montu himself. Whether you’re a coaster fanatic or just here for the thrill, this ride is an unforgettable rush — and you’ll experience it from the very seat where the train breaks from the station: front row, full immersion, full speed.

For those who’ve been following Relaxing Reality for a while, you know how much I love creating 360° content — even if it takes forever to edit! 🎥 I’m excited to share that I’ve finally started working on footage from our Orlando 2025 trip, featuring SeaWorld, Busch Gardens, and Magic Kingdom.

First up: a thrilling nighttime front-row ride on Journey to Atlantis at SeaWorld Orlando, filmed in stunning PureVideo mode with the Insta360 X5. This iconic Mack Rides water coaster, which opened in 1998, blends dark-ride storytelling, immersive show scenes, and splashdown thrills for an unforgettable experience. At night, the atmosphere transforms — you’ll dive through the glowing ruins of Atlantis, brave a 60-foot plunge, and glide through shimmering waterways under the stars. 🌊✨
